I'd have to go with Dave Brubeck. "Take Five" is easily one of the best jazz albums ever produced. He has a slightly more recent release called "Young Lions and Old Tigers" (or "Young Tigers and Old Lions." I can never remember which way it is). It's basically Brubeck and his band playing songs he's composed for up and coming jazz artists with said up and coming artists, as well as some standards with his friends. Album features bassist Christian McBride, Roy Hargrove, and Michael Brecker, among others. If you're in the mood for something a bit older, I'd reccommed some bebop. Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gilespie; Jazz gods among men... |

I was going to say don't get "bitche's brew", before you get some of his earlier stuff, like "Milestones", "Round about Midnight", "Kind of Blue", and some of his sextet stuff. Bitches is awesome, but its not my favorite Davis.... |

Re: Jazz [quote="Rongi"]Hell, I love just about any offshoot of jazz you can come up with. quote] Thats pretty much saying you Love all modern music in general.  I would suggest Weather Report, Wes, Branford and Wynton Marsalis. And of course the classics (The Duke, Coltrane, Davis, Armstrong, etc.) I hate smooth Jazz  , except for a few artists. It's too brite and floaty for me...

Does John Pizzarelli skat (i guess) over like everything he plays? I've seen him twice on conan and he did it both times, but he was still fucking amazing.

Gordian Knot are excellent. I have a soft spot for their first album although the second one isn't half bad. I would also suggest Weather Report. Hah! |

| da blob | Gordian Knot - much more jazz than metal IMO. | |

yer so dumb rongi, Miles was great, but I like his work from the 50-60's the most. Jazz guitarists are my favorite though. Wes Montgomery, Charlie Christian, Les Paul, Johnny Smith, and Grant Green are some of my favorites. I really need more jazz myself. I love it

Jazz I absolutely love jazz. I love fusion, the old stuff from the 20's and 30's, mellow jazz. Hell, I love just about any offshoot of jazz you can come up with. But really, I only listien to it once in a while. I would love to hear so much more of it but I never really buy any jazz music. Most of the time I just hear it in a store or on the radio and really dig it. So give me some good suggestions. And tell me what category they fall under. It could be any jazz. Is Miles Davis good? |
